The first port of call when planning your wedding tables should
be your florist. Florists are able to create stunning table centre
pieces that will form the basis of your table decorations. They often
have loads of photographs of previous displays that have been done so
you can get inspired. Ask them to create something tall so it doesn't
take a huge amount of table space. That way you still have lots of room
for other decorations.

Anything that sparkles will create a great
table decorations. A simple and cost effective way to decorate your
tables is to place tealights all around and scatter some gold or silver
table sprinkles around them. The candle light will reflect in the gold
and silver and create a beautiful shimmering effect to your wedding
venue. This is a beautiful way of creating the wow for your wedding
breakfast on a budget.

If you're having a Winter wedding, wedding
crackers are a lovely idea and form a beautiful part of your wedding
table decorations. They can be purchased in many colours, not just
Christmas colours, so will tie in with any colour scheme. Purchase
crackers with a trinket inside and they will also double up as your
wedding favours.

Dried rose petals or other flower petals can be
bought in bulk for sprinkling over your wedding tables and any other
tables in your wedding venue. These are a really romantic way of adding
decoration to your wedding tables and will look fabulous on your wedding
photos. Use the same petals as the ones in your flower arrangements for
truly coordinated look.

Wedding candles make for beautiful
wedding table decorations. There are lots of ideas besides the
traditional tealight that can be found on the internet. A particular
favourite is the pink or white roseball candle that looks fabulous when
lit up around the room. Or how about floating candles for a truly unique
table centrepiece.

Wedding favours can form an integral part of
your table decorations. Remember to consider the packaging when
purchasing your wedding favours. Most come in beautiful boxes with
coordinated ribbon but check whether the colours will match your other
decorations or consider purchasing a different box for your favours that
matches everything else at the wedding table.
With a little imagination your wedding tables will look really beautiful and you will have wedding table decorations that are admired by all your guests.
